WotlK - Day 13 & 14

Tuesday and Wednesday

Busy day at work, so i'll keep it simple. I managed to get 77 on Tuesday, late night, and im 40% of 77 at the moment.Started questing @ K3 in The Storm Peaks, funny area, a reference to the second highest mountain on earth (K2), much like they did with Area52 (original Area51) with TBC.

At the end of the night, i went to Ulduar: Halls of Stone, getting 2980XP per mob while rested, managing to down the first two boss's: Maiden of Grief and Krystallus. At first i thought i could be a lot harder than it was, due to the attacks heavy in AOE, but, it's doable.

Tonight i'll start the quest-event inside the instance to access the last boss, and see how it works.

"Multi-boxing is not in violation of our current policies, Varlex." ...

"Unlike the forms of botting you mentioned, multi-boxing requires user input and does not automate any aspect of gameplay. Each time an action is performed it is controlled by a real player sitting at their computer controlling multiple accounts. "

"It's cool as long as the person's not automating their actions. If paying for five accounts and playin' em simultaneously on one or more your systems capable of running the game or multiple clients thereof is how you roll, then we're not gonna hate on it."

"...you can consider this to be our official stance on the matter. If a player has paid for 5 accounts, then they are allowed to play with them within our own rules, which also includes the allowance of multi-boxing. A player multi-boxing still needs to maintain and gear up five characters, and it does not matter if they do this all at once or separately. Any gold earned while multi-boxing also would also need to be split between these five characters."

"That's perfectly fine, Killerofevil, what you describe is called multiboxing. As long as the person wasn't automating the other character he/she may control as many characters (that he/she is registered to) as they can."
